Master in Micro- and Nanotechnology (Chips of Europe)
You strive to qualify yourself for your career in a highly future-oriented field, and you seek for a scientific work with innovative technology? In this case, the Master study programme Micro- and Nanotechnology at Hochschule München University of Applied Sciences, Germany may be the perfect choice.
The program is developed as part of the Chips of Europe project, which tackles the EU semiconductor skills gap by modernising education, fostering industry-academia collaboration, and creating a strong talent base in the field in Europe. The project is funded via the DIGITAL Europe Programme of the European Union.
Main details for this course
- a broad choice of modules and the possibility for an individual specialisation,
- Lectures, conducted in German and English,
- very good options for an international exchange,
- the opportunity to participate in a double degree program with the Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique near Montreal in Canada,
- many different laboratories.
About this course
The objective of the Master's degree program is to take into account the cross-sectional function of micro- and nanotechnology and to impart knowledge about the creation, research, and use of the smallest structures and systems in an interdisciplinary training at the interface between natural sciences and engineering. Subjects based on physical principles are more strongly represented. Students can specialise through elective modules.
Students are enabled to independent and in-depth application and independent development of scientific knowledge and processes in the professional field of micro- and nanotechnology. Graduates of the course have trained analytical thinking and judgment in the field of micro- and nanotechnology as well as practical research skills and knowledge.
Learning outcomes
In addition to the technical qualification goals, the course aims to train and deepen interdisciplinary skills in the areas of self-organisation, international and intercultural teamwork, and presentation and discussion in German and English. Future skills, such as digital and IT skills, technological skills, and personal and methodological skills are improved through lab classes, group work, presentations and projects, especially in the cross-master modules.
